Meet Rajesh & Smitha. Mentors, teachers, and co-founders of Mindfulness and Beyond, Rajesh Ramani and Smitha Jayakumar bring more than five decades of combined experience in guiding people through meaningful inner transformation.
Their work is rooted in a rare synthesis of ancient Eastern wisdom and contemporary Western psychology—designed to support emotional clarity, mental resilience, and spiritual wellbeing. Whether through immersive retreats, guided meditation, one-to-one mentoring or mind training programmes, Rajesh and Smitha create spaces where lasting transformation becomes possible.
Having each walked their own deep path of self-inquiry and evolution, their approach is compassionate and clear-eyed. They meet people exactly where they are, offering practical tools and deeply intuitive insight to help untangle limiting patterns and reconnect to what truly matters.
At the heart of their methodology are three pillars: awareness, wisdom and compassion. These foundations allow individuals to move beyond surface-level change and instead begin to see their lives—and themselves—with new perspective and purpose.
Working with Rajesh and Smitha is not about escaping everyday life, but about learning how to live it more fully—with greater understanding, deeper connection, and an abiding sense of calm clarity.
